Features: For a long time, research on business resource outsourcing has primarily focused on bilateral perspectives, examining the relationship between the client and the supplier. However, resource outsourcing is not limited to bilateral resource outsourcing relationships; it also forms resource outsourcing networks through mutual interconnection. The construction of resource outsourcing networks is a complex systematic project, closely related to specific industries, national policies, and internal and external environments. This book points out that, in most cases, coordinating and maintaining the relationships among transaction parties is more important than the transactions themselves. Therefore, the exploration of business resource outsourcing networks also requires greater depth, comprehensiveness, and breadth. Business resource outsourcing is a significant research focus in the field of strategic management. This book comprehensively and systematically introduces business resource outsourcing networks and related issues, covering a series of specialized and extensive major topics such as the construction, evolution, and governance of resource outsourcing networks during their operational processes. The author, drawing on case studies accumulated from personal field investigations, presents a step-by-step, in-depth analysis, emphasizing both theory and practice, as well as both forward-looking and retrospective perspectives, revealing the aspects of business resource outsourcing and related issues. The book is deeply engaging, helping readers gain a thorough understanding of the various problems encountered by businesses in the process of adopting resource outsourcing. This book serves as a theoretical guide for undergraduate and graduate students, MBA students, and scholars engaged in research in this field, as well as providing important decision-making references for professionals in related industries.
